Luke Voit’s bat put a hurting on the ball on Opening Day, and it looks like his left elbow did, too.

Voit, who blasted a three-run homer in the first inning of the Yankees’ 7-2 win over the Orioles on Thursday, was plunked in the bottom of the fifth inning by Mike Wright. MLB Cut 4 tweeted out some close-up photos of the hit-by-pitch in which it looked like his elbow was heavily indented by the ball.

Twitter, of course, had a field day commentating on the photo, asking if the ball was OK as Voit remained in the game.

Voit, who was a revelation for the Yankees last season, has picked up right where he left off, driving in four runs and reaching base four times in the Opening Day masterpiece.

He took the plunking in stride.

“It’s all good, brush it off,’’ Voit said. “No worries, good to go.’’
